Chapter 7: Clues
Yanshan City.
The lobby of the Castle Lord's Mansion.
Xiao Xuan and Zheng Kang were sitting looking at each other.
"I don't know where Patrol Hunter Xiao came from? Why haven't I heard of the name of Xiao Patrol before? ”
Xiao Xuan took a sip of tea and slowly spoke.
"I'm just a country savage, and I have explored all my skills by myself, so I can't talk about how to go from a teacher."
Zheng Kang looked at Xiao Xuan suspiciously, and changed the topic.
"Actually, I invited Xiao Xunzhu to the City Lord's Mansion to talk this time, because I wanted to ask Xiao Xunzhu to do me a favor."
"Recently, a second-level demon beast suddenly appeared outside Yanshan City for some reason, and the trade of Yanshan City has been greatly affected because of this."
"So I hope that Xiao Patrol can kill him, and I will be grateful to Zheng afterwards."
Xiao Xuan put down the cup and smiled slightly.
"There's no need to thank you, I didn't have a fixed place when I first came to Yanshan City, I just hope to be able to live in the City Lord's Mansion for a while in the future."
Zheng Kang obviously didn't want to agree to this request.
"When the time comes, I will send Xiao Patrol to arrest a house, and it will be regarded as my thank you gift."
The reason why Xiao Xuan asked to stay in the City Lord's Mansion was to facilitate the investigation of the disappearance of the population in the future, so naturally he couldn't let go easily.
"How embarrassed is it to let the city lord give me a house at a cost, the city lord is willing to let me live in the city lord's mansion for a few days, and I am already satisfied."
"Or is there something inconvenient for the city lord to let me know, so he didn't let me live in the city lord's mansion?"
Zheng Kang hurriedly shook his head.
"Naturally, there is no such thing, since Xiao Xunzhu insists on living in the City Lord's Mansion, then he will live."
"Later, I will ask the servant to take you to the guest room, and by the way, I will hand over the Spirit Sword to you."
Xiao Xuan nodded and agreed: "This is naturally the best." ”
A few minutes later.
Castle Lord's Mansion Room.
The guest rooms of the Castle Lord's Mansion are located at the rear of the Castle Lord's Mansion and are a building that resembles a courtyard house.
"Lord Xiao, this is your room, if you need anything, you can always order me."
The maid of the City Lord's Mansion handed the sword to Xiao Xuan and said.
Xiao Xuan took the sword, took it in his hand and observed it, and then placed it on his waist.
"The sword is good, what's the name?"
"I heard from the butler that this sword is called Qingshuang, and it is a spiritual weapon."
Xiao Xuan immediately put his face in front of the maid.
"I'm asking you what's your name?"
The maid hurriedly retreated again and again, and her little face suddenly turned red.
"I ...... My name is Xiaoqing. ”
Xiao Xuan's expression suddenly became serious, and he put his hand on Xiaoqing's shoulder.
"Listen to Xiaoqing, I've been targeted by thieves now, I hope you can help me."
Xiaoqing was so excited that she hurriedly covered her mouth with her hands, she really couldn't believe that any thief could enter the City Lord's Mansion.
"That's the kind of Xiaoqing, I hope you can monitor those who enter my room every day in the future, and then tell me their identities."
"You must know that the thief who is eyeing me is extremely good at disguise, don't easily trust everyone around you, including me."
Xiao Qing saw that Xiao Xuan's serious face didn't seem to be joking at all, so he nodded again and again like a chicken pecking rice.
"Lord Xiao, don't worry, as long as I Xiaoqing is in a mosquito, don't try to escape my surveillance."
The words are divided into two ends.
Just after Xiao Xuan left the lobby of the City Lord's Mansion, Zheng Shuofeng walked out of the corner.
He walked up to Zheng Kang with his head down, trembling with fear.
"Father, I was too impulsive today, please calm your anger."
"Rebel!"
Zheng Kang's expression was so angry that it distorted, and a powerful force suddenly burst out from him.
"Do you know that if our cultivation of the Blood Demon Skill is known by other sects, we will be punished by the Nine Clans!"
"I see that Xiao Xuan seems to have noticed your cultivation of the Blood Demon Skill, but he has a special identity, and we must find a way to deal with him."
Zheng Shuofeng realized that he had the opportunity to make up for his mistakes, and hurriedly took the initiative to attack.
"Father, leave this matter to me, it just so happens that the Fourth Blood Guard has just arrived in Yanshan City, and I will work with him to strangle Xiao Xuan at that time."
Hours later.
The woods outside the city of Yanshan.
"Xiaoqing's girl is really easy to deceive, and she fooled her into being my human flesh monitor in a few words."
Xiao Xuan wandered aimlessly in the woods for a long time without finding the slightest shadow of a demon beast.
"Zheng Kang's old man won't be fooling me, this will let me go where to find demon beasts."
Just as Xiao Xuan was scurrying around like a headless fly, there was a sudden sound of fighting not far away.
Following the sound, I saw a man and a woman in the woods not far away, two people wearing the clothes of the Flame Sect, fighting with a demon beast.
"The cultivation of the two disciples of the Flame Fire Sect is about the middle stage of the Bone Refining Realm, but despite this, it is still on par with the strength of that demon beast, presumably this is the demon beast that Zheng Kang asked me to kill."
Xiao Xuan muttered as he watched from the side.
"Senior sister, quickly take out the flame talisman!"
The man turned his head and said as he attracted the attention of the demon beast.
The woman hurriedly took out the flame talisman and threw it at the demon beast, and a burst of flame immediately devoured the demon beast.
But when the flames dissipated, the demon beast only injured some fur, and the demon beast roared and pounced towards the woman.
The man didn't have time to react, and seeing that the claws of the demon beast were about to fall on the woman, a knife light suddenly swept through the neck of the demon beast.
In the next second, the monster's head slipped from its neck.
"Is this girl okay, is she hurt?"
Xiao Xuan put away the Qingshuang Sword and stepped forward to care.
The woman's face turned red to the base of her ears.
"I ...... I'm fine. ”
At this time, another disciple of the Flame Flame Sect also hurriedly stepped forward and pulled Xiao Xuan away.
"Senior sister, are you okay, are you injured?"
The woman's eyes were still on Xiao Xuan, and she just shook her head perfunctorily at the man's request.
"Senior brother, I'm fine."
The same problem is treated so differently, and the man is naturally uncomfortable.
I saw him glance at Xiao Xuan, and his eyes were full of dissatisfaction.
"I am Shi Yuanzheng, an outer disciple of the Flame Fire Sect, dare to ask which sect this brother belongs to?"
"My name is Xiao Xuan, and I am a low-level patrol officer of the Liudaomen Branch of Yanshan City."
Although the sects in the Great Liang Kingdom are all restricted by the Six Daomen, a low-level patrol does not have any right to speak, and Shi Zhengyuan becomes more and more rampant.
"It turned out to be a low-level patrol, it just so happened that we went to Yanshan City for some things, so please ask you to be a coolie for us."
The woman stepped forward and grabbed Xiao Xuan's arm.
"Senior brother, others have saved me anyway, how can you talk to others like this?"
Immediately, the woman looked at Xiao Xuan again.
"Hello, my name is Qin Yao, and I am a personal disciple of the Flame Sect Master."
Xiao Xuan looked at Qin Yao, her appearance was extremely pure, but it would not give people a feeling of alienation, it could be said that she was the best in the world.
But he really didn't understand why the sect master's personal disciple would go out with an outer disciple.
Suddenly, Xiao Xuan noticed a toe peeking out of the tree behind him.
Originally, he didn't want to have too much to do with the people of the Flame Sect, but for now, it was safer to follow the two people in front of him.
"No problem, since the two members of the Flame Sect have needs, I naturally can't refuse."
